Anyone have a Minolta XG-7???

It was my first "good" camera, 25 years old, and I'm going to put it back to use now that DH's camera was damaged in an accident. But I can't locate the owner's manual, and I went to a few websites that said that they posted owners manuals but couldn't seem to access any of them. I need to know, what size of battery is used in this camera? The battery compartment holds 2 of the round, small disc-type batteries, but there is no other identification.

I know that it's a long shot, but I thought that maybe someone on these Boards would have the info. TIA!!!

I'd take it to a camera store and see what they can tell you. They can help find the right batteries for you too without you trying to pull your hair out figuring it out.

Everready S-76 or equivalent is what they have listed. HTH!

You guys are great!!!
There is no camera store around here and I need to use the camera for a party tomorrow, so I sent DH to KMart with the battery "holder", but he was doubtful they could help. I just called and left a message for him about the correct type of battery. THANKS Badunnin!!! :)

Vicci - would you like the manual? I downloaded the file (it's big) in pdf format. If you have adobe acrobat reader, you should be able to open it. I could email it to you...

And if you don't have Acrobat Reader, it is a free download -- one of the few free and safe things out there, not to mention very helpful.
